You're walking down the street and suddenly see a name. No Grand Words. But a Story.

This is a stumbling stone — a small concrete cube with a brass plate. Often unnoticed by those rushing past, but deeply eloquent to those who pause. Each stone marks a story. A life. And a memory returning to the city. Since August 2025, the Kyiv project “One Stone — One Life: 80 Stumbling Stones for Kyiv” has continued its work. This autumn will bring new installations, new names, new research, and new teams, which we will begin forming in September. Follow our announcements — it might just be you
